Topic: Remote host said: 551

[jonash]

Hi,
When a user sends mail to 10-15 persons she gets the message back with these errors:

<abcdef@gmail.com>:
127.0.0.1 failed after I sent the message.
Remote host said: 551 145281141 message sending quota exceeded, try later

for most of the recipients. They are all on different mail domains, i.e. gmail, hotmail, etc. The mail is very small, just 2-3 lines of text.

Is this a problem on the SME side or on the recieving side?

Any ideas?

It may have been caused by the file system / was full...

Neither. That problem is at your SMTPSmartHost, which is applying message limits to your internet connection. Either send fewer messages, pay them more money to get a higher limit, or change to a different service provider.

Charlie, 145281141 in the error message above are the sent bytes?

TIA

I guess, that is a question, although it parses as a statement with a question mark.

I don't know. That message is from the SMTPSmartHost, and you'd need to have access to its source code or documentation to know what the message means.
